Still know reward for base defense you know really the most important part of Bounty No bases to hit No bounty event. I would like that new hull and turret but to me Base defense is prob the biggest part of bounty and get no points at all for that. May give it pass save the $$ make this a cheap week of play.

so...no structure build tokens? i though you guys said that would be part of the prizes? Glad some of the rules have been tweeked but.....darn...that sucks. Also...are the adder strike turret stats correct? That seems...a bit anemic for a tier 6.5 turret. Especially with the description "melts through many tier 6 threats"Edit: With that damage it wont get through ANY tier 6 hull...unless the stats hidden by the picture reveal some weird mechanic.

Kixeye hasn’t done as much to annoy its users as other game companies have. It doesn’t sell decorations for games and try to milk gamers for all they’re worth, and it doesn’t sell advanced weaponry that will allow rich gamers to wipe out poor gamers. But it does allow users to accelerate time in the game. Rather than wait for something to be developed, a user can pay to accelerate the build time for units.

You guys totally missed/skipped/ignored the major gripes from last Bounty...

Honestly GDA, you want a PvP event, but you fail to listen to the players AT ALL..

1) You HAVE TO give us a reason to defend our base.. Just like last one, WHY should I defend? why should I spend the coin to keep my guard repaired? We have ZERO REASON currently..

2) Bounty as described was supposed to keep the lows from being farmed and the higher fighting between themselves.. YET once again, per the briefing, you are only basing everything off unsecured bounty..

SO Number 1 top guy, banks all his bounty, he now can farm every level 50 on the map, cause they have more unsecured then he does..

I am starting to wonder if either your vision of a PvP event is totally messed the hell up, OR if its the **** bean counters who are calling the shots now. Cause this does not look fun.

Absolutely right on #1... #2, not so much. That big guy is only going to be able to hit 1 maybe 2 low levels before he has more bounty, not *every level 50 on the map.

2 Months ago it was just a finger, then it was two. Last month it was the fist, and last week to the elbow....

Im sorry to say but 13d for specialist for the valiant and vanquisher isnt worth it. They are significantly outmoded hulls that are worthless in base def. The only thing they could do good against are t5 conq and look we are at t6.5** conqs

Nothin in this concept as trully changed. Nothin in the price list warrants my base to stop for 4 days. Heck a new PVP hull when i havent built the one from last raid and bounty season. Ya we got a new shipyard, but it wont be built for roughly 60 days, plenty of time to win this limited hull and tech again, especially if bounty is to be a monthly event.

Thx kix for the free weekend (tho is was going to be that no matter what), it a long one up north with our thanksgiving, so it appreciated.

Getting bounty for base defense doesn't make sense to me. If you look at bounty as loot stored in your base then why would you take someones bounty just for defending? They didn't bring any bounty with them for you to loot. The plus for good base defense is that you don't lose your bounty. Just makes sense to me that way.

Because it take "my or your" base to make bounty. It's like hey let me use your Lamborghini for 4 days to make my business take off you don't get anything for it.

Sorry but no we put our bases out to get trashed for 4 days strait the ones that fail should pay us just like ones we smash. Don't do that they can keep bounty not interested at all. Was fun event but it is 50% base hit 50% base defense you cant pay on one and not the other.

adder turret has a big dot on it.Also, no single twin blade hull? gotta go all or nothin?

that price IS for a single hull......you are just allowed to redeem it 2 times. Not "double deal" this time

What I'm reading is its a 2x prize redemption. Like it was for the Courage the first time around... Makes sense that they would probably keep it that way, to encourage people to go for it.. because it will limit who gets it..

Blooming Heck.You guys really learned NOTHING from the last one, did you?Let's examine the fails in the briefing first:2 Stars is 50% and outpost, not 25% and outpost. 25% and OP is a fail.Copy-paste fail referring to first season."Checkpoint 5 is as large as all the others combined"... yet the very next screenshot clearly shows that it's twice as large. Which is it?"Unlike Medals, you get 30% of unsecured Bounty for earning 2 stars and destroying the Outpost, regardless of damage dealt." Except that 2 stars is itself linked to damage, so is it linked to damage or not?"Randon Breeder"? Really?Limit on redemption of limited blueprint for Adder Strike turret not given.

Moving onto mechanics changes:Okay, so you've now made more bounty stealable on each hit, and done nothing to make it more possible to defend your base. <Sarcasm> I see no way that could end badly.</Sarcasm>You're still basing it totally off unsecured bounty, so every time a checkpoint is hit- and there are now two more per day- the successful players get to spend a few hits beating up players who have absolutely no way of countering them in any way.And have you fixed ANY of the issues with the last bounty? Um, let's see... No.

And the environment you are doing bounty in:Last bounty, it was possible for normal players to have fleets that could hit bases. This time? Sorry, nope, OP10 says go away. And since it's new raid month, everyone has been busy building raid ships, not the brand new brennus sloth that is the ONLY hull that can break an even half-arsed OP10 base. So Mega-Coiners only. So, they have no-one to hit except each other, which means not enough bounty generated for anyone to get the top prizes, which was a massive problem last time even with the legions of poor fools who didn't know better, but will this time- and just to make that even worse, you've upped the costs of the new stuff.... a lot.Also, while last time many were done with researches and building, meaning there was little disincentive to participate from that perspective, this time we have lots of researches, equips and upgrades that will be set back by days if we enter.

And the prizes:That new twinblade looks awesome! Oh, wait, the new portal hard-counters it.Clipper missile? Shame it can't kill year old defender hulls.Prizes from last bounty? More expensive now.New prizes? Even more extortionate.

I couldn't find it in the bounty S2 briefing and only vaguely remember it from the previous bounty's discussion, but will our SY builds/refits keep going if the base is flattened while participating in bounty?

I kinda remember that was a thing that was supposed to happen in the last one since the bubble time was reduced significantly. Would love to participate but cant babysit a base with a 4 hour timer and dont want to risk my fang refits not finishing in time.

"Fun" is subjective. What's fun for you may be dull for another. When you apply your subjective notion of "fun" onto another as an objective fact, you've set the standard that the only opinion that matters is your own and those kinds of people aren't much fun to be around.

OK ..... looks like bases will be not repaired and as for the conqueror hulls we are using wont have time to repair I coin enough in raids..... 4 hours is not long enough to repair fleet and I have 37 days till new SY is done .... I wont be doing this again EVER till repair times change GOOD LUCK Everyone
